Charlie Kirk shot dead at Utah university

Agree. I mean how can folk come on here and state they actually liked the guy. Staggering.
Most people haven’t though have they.

Not wanting someone to be murdered isn’t the same thing as agreeing with their views or liking them.

If you don’t like his views beat him in an argument or debate them. Don’t resort to being a murderer - seems pretty reasonable to me
 
Yea there’s dads been brutally murdered in public, pretty much infront of the world, but they’ll be alright, there only kids…

Are you actually being serious? The video of it is everywhere and having your dad executed I’d imagine is pretty traumatising even the older you get.

I get you don’t like his views, but you can surely show a bit of empathy?

Given Charlie Kirk thought empathy was a ‘woke’ construct and harmful to society, I kind of feel we should honour his memory in that spirit.

But, yes, empathy for his kids as they didn’t ask for any of this and it will be a traumatising event and no one would wish that upon them.
 
I have no narrative - I don't have a preference or opinion on US Politics.

I just think everyone is a fucking nutcase, and the world is scary.
You claim to "have no narrative" but, with no evidence whatosever, you have concluded that it was "Most likely" a lefty who committed this crime.

With a similar lack of evidence, I would conclude that you are far-right.

It's really that easy, isn't it?
 
I think the thing to come out of this is that left or right, democrat or republican etc etc, humanity is royally fucked unless there is a sea change in how people interact with each other and while petrol instead of water is poured on the flames of division we are going to hell in a handbasket at a breakneck speed.

I'd never heard of Charlie Kirk yesterday and this is the only post I've seen so far that I really resonate with.
 
Critical thinking and observation are not Westies strong suit but I still like him.

I think he is a a victim of social media and the me generation but as he grows older he will come to his senses.

Hell he might even think Trump was a decent president and then he will have me to answer for.
Are you that Aussie bellend with a slightly different user name? That would explain the stupid post.

What @SWP's back said about empathy.
 


This is the kind of person he was for those playing dumb on here.

Was told by someone this morning that they agreed with a lot of what he stood for, I just walked away shaking my head after mentioning the quotes of guns/2nd amendment and his ‘empathy’ comments.

They’re too stupid to debate with.

What if said views are causing the deaths of thousands and the perpetrator refuses to negotiate?
 
Didn't know an awful lot about him other than the awful stuff I've seen of him and the odd video of him arguing with kids in universities and dodging debates with those he knew would wipe the floor with him. With all that being said, its not something I'll be celebrating as a win. I'm not too keen on any kid losing a parent unless that parent is abusive to the kid/family. And even though I'd never feel any empathy for Kirk, I do feel bad for his kids.

What a fucked up world. Created by fucked up views.

Ok, call me Far-Right. I'm really not arsed what you call me.

Like I said, I have no allegiance to either side. I just think that anybody who kills a young man, and a Father of 2, is a psychopath.

If the roles were revered and it was Leftie Politician who had been killed, I'd be saying the same thing.
 
Thoughts to him and rest in peace.

Yes I have opinions against him, notably of his debate against Harvard Uni students on the Israel situation and that young student with Harry Styles like hair dropped the mic. But debates are debates, and shooting guns must be abolished. Humans are humans.

The US and arms need to revise. There’s a big difference on the right to bear arms between a 1971 rifled musket and a 2000s AR-15 with remington and scope.

Not many did when it happened in June.
 
Did Kirk turn against Israel? Genuine question; I’ve no idea.

I’m just going through this thread so I’m reading page by page.

But I have known Charlie as defending Israel actions last year in his debates against university students.

I hadn’t followed him since, maybe 5 months ago.
